Shapshak says Musk’s weird behaviour is not good for the company, “Elon Musk is his own worst enemy. All this chaos that is going on at Twitter right now, is a direct consequence of his own weird and inexplicable behaviour, which is sometimes naive and juvenile. “ This comes at the back of ongoing staff lay-offs at the company recently bought by the world’s richest man, South African-born tech billionaire, Elon Musk. in a well-publicised acquisition from co-founder and former CEO, Jack Dorsey. Yesterday Dorsey’s Twitter handle @Jack tweeted “Nobody knows anything” to which Elon Musk responded, “The big 8 ball knows everything.”

Shapshak suggests that Musk’s behaviour could be upsetting to advertisers and users of the platform. “He’s got to understand the business model of this company is around advertising, when 90% of the revenue comes from advertising, do not do things that make advertisers think you do not know what you’re doing.”
